| 2006 | AIR BAGS | THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT/AIR BAG LIGHT WENT ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR MONTHS, FINALLY THE DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO GET THE ERROR CODE. IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS AND BMW HAS KNOWN ABOUT IT SINCE 2008. PER THEIR WEBSITE THEY WERE GOING TO SEND OUT RECALL NOTICES TO OWNERS, WE NEVER RECIEVED ANYTHING. BMW NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND FIX THE PROBLEM AT NO COST TO OWNERS. *TR |
| 1994 | SUSPENSION:REAR | SUB FRAME RIPS APART FROM UNDER BODY OF CAR. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 92-98 3 SERIES OF BMW CARS. THESE CAR ARE GENERALLY KNOWN AS BODY MODEL E36. I BELONG TO SEVERAL BMW OWNWERS SITES IN THE WEB AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, WHERE IT STARTS SLOWLY WITH JUST A CLICK UNTIL IT IT BECOMES A CLUNCK WHEN CHANGING GEARS AND THEM IT IS TOO LATE. THIS IS ONE STORY. HTTP://BIMMER.ROADFLY.ORG/BMW/FORUMS/E36/5783036-1.HTML I'M NOT SURE IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY DEATS FROM THIS, YET. NUMBER OF FAILURES IT SEEMS OVER 100. INJURED, NOT SURE BUT I'M SURE THERE ARE POTENTIAL FOR THAT.*AK |
